We don't just talk about progress and innovation here – we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it.

Does the opportunity to lead continuous improvement programs related to the development and manufacturing of Caterpillar’s world class products excite you? If so, we have a great opportunity for you to join the Earthmoving Division (EMD) as a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt .

This includes planning topics, contacting presenters, making sure the material is ready and ensures the group stays on task and focused.

  • Process Management Tool (PMT) Management: Utilization and documentation of processes within PMT, with current reviews completed. A clear process owner to ensure utilization and adherence is valuable.
